This is my 1800th post here !
Oh, my God !! It is simply unbelievable !!!

I started writing posts here from 1-10-2012 and in almost 13.5 years’ time, I wrote 1800 posts here. Add to it another 100 odd posts elsewhere, on different aspects of Hindi, Marathi, Telugu and Kannada films and I start thinking if I am really the same person ?

After quitting my Pharma work totally as a career (retirement in 1998, as a General Manager-Marketing and then as a Consultant upto 2008), I turned to my favourite subject – Old films and songs, starting only as a commentator on articles of other writers initially. I was initiated into writing posts by ATUL JI. So, whatever my achievements in this field are, the credit goes to ATUL JI, for his help, encouragement and for providing opportunity. Thank you, ATUL JI !

‘Shaarda’ (1981) was produced by K K Talwar and was directed by Lekh Tandon. The cast included Jeetendra, Rameshwari, Usha Kiran, Om Prakash, Deena Pathak, Kalpana Iyer, Madan Puri, Jagdeep, Iftekhar, Pinchoo Kapoor etc. Sarika and Raj Babbar made guest appearances. The story of the film seems to be partly inspired from a Hollywood film, ‘How To Murder Your Wife’ (1965). While the Hollywood film was a black comedy, Lekh Tandon converted his Hindi film into a family drama. The shooting of the film started in 1978. The film got released on April 10, 1981.

There were popular bhajans like, Darshan do Ghanshyam, Jay Govinda Gopala, Vaishnav jan to tene kahiye, Sab ki naiya paar lagaiya’ Ramdhun lagi etc. On the whole this film was full of religious fervour, good music and a show of histrionic talents by experienced artists.

Today’s song is from a social film – Suhag-1958.

This was a film dubbed from its Tamil version titled “Tang Malai Ragsiyam”. There was a Kannada version too, titled ” Ratnagiri Rahasyam”. Both the South Indian films were made simultaneously in 1957. The Hindi version was made in 1958. I have not seen this film. All 3 versions were directed by B.R. aka Budagaru Ramakrishnaiah Panthulu. For him this was his DEBUT film as a Director. Not only him, but even his assistant Director – Puttanna Kanagal made his DEBUT in direction. Before direction, both were mere actors. Even in later years, they appeared in a few films as actors.

In this article, I am presenting a song, ‘suno aye duniyawaalon ek naya paighaam laaya hoon’ from an incomplete film, ‘Naya Mandir’ (1961). It was directed by Kishore Sahu. It had Manoj Kumar, Mala Sinha and Mehmood in main roles. I came to know of this song on the audio album of ‘Film Hi Film’ (1983). Unfortunately, this song seems to have been deleted from the VCD of the film available on one of the video sharing platforms. Since video clip of the song is available in continuation of the scene from ‘Film Hi Film. (1983), it can be construed that the song was included in the film.

Shahab Ahmed, the producer of ‘Film Hi Film’ (1983) had earlier produced ‘Cinema Cinema’ (1979). During his visit to Bombay Film Laboratory, he was astonished to see cans of more than 2000 unfinished films lying in the laboratory. Shahab Ahmed thought that a lot of efforts had gone into making these films which unfortunately remained incomplete for various reasons. So, he came with the idea of incorporating scenes and songs from a few select incomplete films to make a full-length feature film [Source: ‘…and Pran’ (2005) by Bunny Rueben].
